 Description   

If a group of aggravated zombie pigmen is lured in to a death trap and dies from fall damage, they should all drop their xp. But it seems that only the one that initiated the assault (the one that got hit by a player) are dropping xp.

How to reproduce:
On a platform high above ground, spawn in many zombie pigmen.
Put the player on another platform, with a bridge of open trapdoors in between, not longer than two blocks.
The player (in survival mode) shoot one pigman with a bow.

Mobs only drop XP when killed by the player or tamed wolves. Mobs killed by environmental damage (fall, fire, suffocation etc.) or by another mob will not drop XP (or their rare drops, like gold bars for zombie pigmen).
